Wanna ask, what is the major difference from Wira year 2002 (RM 15k) and Wira year 2005 (RM20k)?

I meant from the perspective of engine (refer below 2 pic)

I got my wira from 2nd hand car dealer 2 weeks back. So, I realise the steering keep shaking whenever I stop at traffic light. I guess it should be mounting problem.

So should I get back to the dealer and request them change for me (FREE)? or I should just go to outside mechanic?

I wonder the dealer will change or they just put some oil or what so ever.

Yeah it is your engine mountings

Will it caused by throttle body faulty/dirty?

More detail information:
When going on the road, no matter 40km/h or 110 km/h, steering no shake, all go smooth.
Only when stop at traffic light or stop the car, with the engine ON, aircond ON. Then steering is SHAKING. (Engine OK, wont like engine hampir mati)

My wira manual 1.5 year 05 (just bought not long ago).

Is it the car seems correct when it is on 5th gear :

110km/h = RPM 3.5 hmm.gif
130km/h = RPM 4 shocking.gif

Sunny 130Y year 1995 RPM only at 2.8 when 110km/h
Honda City year 2010 RPM only at 2.5 when 110km/h

By the way, I spotted my wira speed reading is wrong (I compare to my GPS speed reading). So how do I fix it?

Our speedometer readings are inaccurate (avg -10km/h in GPS)
But your 110km/h at 3500rpm is kind of high (MIVEC GB readings or 1.3 GB), possibly a GB change?
*
From your explanation, is it car meter show 100km/h, GPS show 110km/h? And which one is the accurate one?
My wira currently experience this, car meter show 110km/h, GPS show 122km/h (difference of 12km/h)

GB = gearbox? means my gearbox die-ing?

Let me fix my previous statement a bit.

110km/h (GPS) = 95-100 km/h car speedometer = RPM 3.5  hmm.gif
130km/h (GPS) = 110 - 120 km/h car speedometer = RPM 4  shocking.gif
*
First thing is, my speedometer showing correct value?
Second thing is, any error with my RPM (engine,GB, watsoever)?

Thx for the speedometer reply notworthy.gif Just got quotation from Proton, RM 230 inclusive labor cost.
I think I need to fix the speedometer first, then only I see the correct KM/H match with what RPM.

How about aircond? (just added gas) Currently morning and night, the aircond is OKOK, the wind is cold, but not strong.

Afternoon, the car very hot, wind feel like blowing hot air instead of cold air and my car like sauna.

I figure out some of the possible issue that cause my car very hot :
1) Black color car with black color seat = absorb heat (cant fix)
2) No tinted currently - plan to tint it probably next month
3) For aircond part, refer below (havent do anything yet, due to no budget this month)

Showed to air cond mechanic: no problem at compressor, recommend to fix this issue once and for all by
a) The aircond pipe into the car doesn't cold at all. (I touch, and do compare to my nissan sunny 1995 130Y, my wira really feels like warm one)
b) Change condenser to bigger piece - RM 200-RM 300 depends quality
c) Need to release gas and test on compressor gao gao. But from outlook, seems like compressor still good
- RM 60 for gas refill
d) Change valve filter - RM 100+=

Anything else possible that make aircond dont blow cold wind during HOT afternoon day?
Coz, during morning & night, it is working fine with cold air blowing

Speedo meter cost only rm145(now should be increased already) + rm15 workmanship..... I doubt people will repair the speedo meter as usually is the gear got problem....

I also confused with what I should fix first. Coz, I dont even know how accurate my GPS is. And definitely my car speedometer is wrong too.

Let's see some of my calculation based on stupid assumption rclxub.gif
(my wira is with originial RIM)
(as some one mentioned, GPS is running -10km/h behind of real speed)

QUOTE(mphpopular @ Jun 18 2011, 09:40 AM)
95-100 km/h car speedometer = 110km/h (GPS) = 120km/h in real= RPM 3.5
110 - 120 km/h car speedometer = 130km/h (GPS) = 140km/h in real = RPM 4
*
If the calculation is right, then my car is running correctly. However, all are assumption unless I know what is my real speed

About there. Mine 1.5M GLi
90km/h ~2.8k RPM
110 ~3.2-3.3k RPM
130 ~3.8-4.0k RPM

Always like that since ori new car. No mod. All stock.

My GPS is about 8-10km/h slower.

Air-cond, try cheapest solution first, refill gas.
Maybe it is an indication got leak somewhere, normally at the honey-comb (behind glove compartment).
Do you see like white-smoke blowing out from your air-cond ?
*
Gas refill edi, now afternoon got cold air, at least no sweating in the car. No white smoke from air cond
Mechanic tell me possible got leak, he open up 1 plastic penutup (I'm not sure what is that) (behind the engine there)
He said got a bit oily, maybe got gas leak, suggestion do aircond service (change valve... and check any leakage) and change the small penutup.
I told him not to change condenser (longer piece of condenser cost RM 200 - 300), clean it first then test.

QUOTE(masao343 @ Jun 20 2011, 12:24 PM)
IIRC my RPM shows 3.5k when i hit 110km/h on 5th. mine is a 1.5GLi MT but changed to larger wheels, so actualy speed might be more than 110km/h, maybe 115km/h. This is with full car load, BTW.
Dont be too concerned with what speed your GPS is showing. I use Ovi maps and also Garmin XT, both doesnt show my actual speed (speedo vs GPS). Anyway, if you really wanna get actual reading, get a friend, drive side-by-side and when he hit xxx speed, ask him to signal you, then look at your own speedo showing what speed lo  hmm.gif  (make sure your fren's car speedo is accurate also first la)

My Wira skirting like a bit longgar edi. How can I DIY and fix it?
Coz it making noise now whenever on bumpy road.

I see another side of skirting, I think they use glue or maybe sale-tape to do it.

Just did services.
Spark Plug + Engine Oil + Engine Filter = RM 90 (buy on my own)
Send to mechanic to do = RM 30 (labor cost)
Balancing + Alignment = RM 45

Is it all the services I need to do in order to take care my car better?
